An educational tour to Sriharikota on 17.08.2017

The department of Physics, Maris Stella College had arranged an educational tour to Sriharikota Higher Altitude Range (SHAR), Andhra Pradesh on 17.08.2017.  We visited Mission Control Centre (MCC), first Launch Pad FLP, called IOP – Integration on pad facilitates where the vertical integration of the stages of the PSLV and GSLV are assembled, the Second Launch pad (SLP) and Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) which then moved in vertical position to the Launch Pad, working platforms that provide access to the vehicle at various levels and Mobile Service Tower (MST) that acts as a shelter to the vehicle and personnel during integration. This educational tour provided additional knowledge to what students had studied in the course “Mechanics and properties of Matter” during I semester about variable mass systems, multistage rocket launching techniques, types of fuels enclosed in various stages of rockets, the need of heat sink coverage of the rocket, tracking techniques of launched rockets using RADARS. Students learnt about job opportunities in Indian space programme at Sriharikota.
